Nepal receives earthquake aid from Bay Area nonprofits

KATHMANDU, Nepal (KGO) -- Nepal was hit with yet another earthquake on Tuesday, the second powerful quake in the area in 17 days. This second quake was a magnitude-7.3 followed by a dozen large aftershocks.

Nepal's Home Ministry says that at least 42 people have died and over 1,000 were injured.

When ABC7 News first interviewed Pandey in El Cerrito, he told us about where his family set up tents after the quake.

"This is where my land is, right here. Empty. Oh, this is where the tents are," Pandey said.

His relatives only recently moved back into their homes.

"It wasn't nice in the tents. We didn't have things. And then it started raining. When it started raining, the tents couldn't take the water off of us. It was all inside and we had to struggle to stay there," his niece Sunishma Pandey explained.
